    “We have Armstrong at home” SENT ME ONG
  • Gibiate became the first actual full TV anime on MyAnimeList with a score below 4.00. what a legend.
  • "You really thought killing me would be enough to make me die???" But but...people die when they are killed...!
  • @whomst855
    The harem actually makes me feel more bad for the girl who he "loves" than the guy. Imagine finding out the guy who you planned to marry slept with 3+ girls behind your back.
  • @tessieract
    As an aspiring writer, Gibiate did one thing well: it gave me an actual anime that I can point to and say "I've written better plots than that"
  • @Ultimate_Ace
    I re-watched the pink haired chick in Gibiate reloading the shotgun like 20 times and whoever animated that scene has NO idea how shotguns work.
  • The anime about the guy cheating on his fiancee makes me genuinely uncomfortable, there are some things you just cannot frame in a positive light.
  • @Literally-Brian
    Geoff’s suffering is worth more than any Christmas present
  • @Yggdraseed
    "Their character arc is a line" is one of the most well-worded indictments of a one-dimensional character I've ever heard.
  • @Monothefox
    Do not forget that the "philosopher's time" is japanese for "post-nut clarity". I am not kidding.
  • @traestoflux
    i'm incredibly sorry, and honestly this video is all i've ever seen about gibiate, but the animation looks like yoshitaka amano's art in the same way that lacroix tastes like fruit smoothie
  • @yaderx1
    You forgot to mention how most people immediately believed the samurais traveled in time instead of believing they were crazy like any normal person.
  • @inshayana
    "Cringe is very much in the skin of the becringer." new motto.
  • Honestly you saying Peter wants a polyamorous relationship is giving him to much credit. He really just seems to want a bachelor's life style.
  • @sadowheart7620
    Eugenics NTR Harem I had to rewind ten times to make sure I heard correctly
  • @stormhawkdude
    I truly, genuinely feel sorry for Geoff for forcing himself to watch any of Peter Grill. I was lied to years ago when the MonMusu anime was just out that "Peter Grill was just a more fantasy genre styled Monster Musume." and made it all of two and maybe a couple pages into chapter 3 when I just went "Fuck this series." Imagine my surprise when I heard it was getting animated. Geoff, if you're reading this right now; please have a warm cup of soothing tea, wrap up in a nice cozy blanket, put on RE:Creators again, and take some time for yourself because Jesus Christ do you deserve it just for Grill, let alone the rest of this list. Happy New Year to you and Yazy.
  • One of the things about Peter Grill that also makes me uncomfortable is the fact that the consent is also dubious on his part. He doesn't even seem to ENJOY cheating on his betrothed, nor does he seem to want any of the girls' sexual advances in the first place. Not to mention he tells them "no" multiple times.
